What's Changed

Improvements:

  • FDM part changes:

    • x-gantry-front
      • switched to using M3x12-self-tapping-screw for installing z-axis linear rail and z-limit-switch
    • y-gantry
      • tightened M5 hex nut pocket fit
    • nozzle-rack
      • removed top ribs to improve z-clearance
      • updated mounting bolt channels to reduce likelihood of M3x10-hex-head free-spinning during installation
    • static-camera-foot
      • added bumps mounting socket for tightening fit to bottom-camera-mount
    • mobo-top-cover
      • Added detents to boot and reset button to improve UX
    • feeder-slot-bracket
      • See below
  • OpenPnP Config

    • Certain settings are changed to make setup smoother
      • Nozzle tips N045 and N24 are set to not auto calibrate after homing to not confuse first time users
      • Homing fiducial is not set to scan after homing to simplify setup process
      • Both nozzles do not have tips installed by default
      • Docs are updated to reflect these changes, and walk the user through configuring these settings
    • GCode macros are updated to reflect new speed, acceleration, and homing settings
  • Feeder slot overhaul:

    • Consolidates the 50x individual feeder slot pieces into 4x subassemblies to reduce assembly time
    • These subassemblies are made from 2x unique 3D prints and 4x unique PCBs
    • Adds design files for new slot blade PCBs to source
    • This new version of the feeder slot is fully backwards compatible with all existing feeders

Bug Fixes:

  • Changes sensorless homing settings in Marlin release for much more consistent homing
  • Updates method of polling vacuum sensors for quicker response
